Ill reserve my final opinion for the final pics, lol. But for now your gf sounds like a smart lady,lol. Its just I would be worried about throwing all that extra weight on the front end, then lifting it, on a truck that already has known issues with front steering and suspension components.

BTW, I do like that rear diff cover,

I didn't realize stealing tailgates was a big thing. I guess Ill go ahead and buy the lock I keep delaying on before mine dissapears.

I ordered them in July from Road Armor for the same sale price. It was also before they announced their connection with Top Guns.

I'm curious to know though... Is Top Guns selling what they have in stock? Or do they have to order them first? it seems that Road Armors biggest "Con" is the wait time for their product. Either way, I'm glad I didn't have to wait until next year.

Someone stole your tailgate? Really?
Yup! They are black flares. Even considering black Line-X on them... we'll see. This is how my truck looked a while back...

I don't think they "stock" any of them. I bet its more like they place an order when you order.

Default Updated pic!

So this weekend I changed out the chrome laramie grill for a sport (red) laramie grill. I also installed my fender flares. I have mixed feelings on the flares only having 285 tires on it, but it really cuts down the mud from my parents road in the winter time. I started to remove the chrome from the doors on the passenger side, but ran out of time. So here it is until I get the chrome off. Then of course in the months ahead will be a lift and bigger tires. Enjoy!



Sorry for the crummy pic. It's misting outside and foggy. Funny... even with a 5MP camera, you can still tell its a from a phone. I'll get a better one once the weather clears up... whenever that might be.
